Thats an instant trade in my eyes. Even if Richardson is slowed down in September he'll still outperform Wallace. Especially with how weak your RBs are this is a great trade for you. Redman is the perfect starter to hold you over until Richardson can be effective for you. Richardson is expected be able to play in Week 1 now. Certainly take this trade with how great your WRs are.

Just got back from doing my live draft. 12-team PPR league(QB, WR, WR, RB, RB, W/T, W/R, K, DEF); 4 pts for TD passes; Drafted #2

QB: Fitzpatrick, Jake Locker
RB: Ray RIce, Darren Sproles, Trent Richardson, Stevan Ridley, Jacquizz Rodgers, Pierre Thomas
WR: Julio Jones, Percy Harvin, Torrey Smith, Darius Heyward-Bey
TE: Vernon Davis
K: Alex Henery
DEF: Buffalo

what do you think? I'm definitely weak at QB. I may just play it by match-ups and see how it goes. It was a strange Draft that there was 5 straight QB selection in the 1st round :facepalm: and threw off the draft.

Your team is very very strong for a PPR. Trent Richardson should provide great value where you got him. QB is definitely bad news for you. Locker could be a nice sleeper but there has to be better options on the waiver wire for a 12 team league.

Thanks, I got Trent in the 5th round.

Well these are some notable QBs thats on the waiver wire: Russell Wilson, Carson Palmer, and Sam Bradford

I like Carson Palmer over Fitzpatrick and since you are so weak at the QB position, I'd even consider adding a 3rd QB and taking a flier on Russell Wilson. If Wilson can even continue this for a few games you'll get solid production during that time.

would you drop Jacquizz Rodgers for Ronnie Brown or Rod Streater?

Nope. I think Jacquizz has more value in the long run. Streater may produce for a few games but there is a lot of talent ahead of him in on that Raiders receiving core. I think Ronnie Brown holds the least amount of value out of these guys.

What's the likelihood that Detroit trades for Chris Ivory--I imagine he'd be worth picking up if that's the case. What say you?

He'll have a ton of value of Kevin Smith can't stay healthy. Ivory should come in and be the goal line back for the Lions. These rumors pretty much assure that Jahvid Best may not make any impact this season. It is certainly something to monitor because Ivory could make a big impact for owners this year. If you have the room and you're thinking about it. I'd gamble and pick him up in hopes of the something happening.

I have Randy Moss as my 5th WR in my 10 team PPR but i'm thinking of picking up Austin Collie off the waiver wire instead. My thought process is both are expendable so i'm not losing anything if Collies concussions linger but if they don't he's more viable. What do you think?
